About this property

FUN at the beach and park with Family & Friends!

A warm and cozy house with lots of sunshine and cool ocean breezes. A great home and location to get away from it all. Fill your day with shopping, site-seeing or wine tasting. Jump in the ocean or take a walk at sunset then come home and rinse off in the outside shower. For dinner eat out, order in, or create something wonderful in the Tully stocked kitchen. Come stay with us!

A 5-15 minute walk gets you to Shoreline park, Leadbetter beach, SB harbor and restaurants. A 5 minute drive or less takes you to Lazy Acres, a gourmet grocery store, to State Street for fabulous shopping or to our lovely Zoo.

Great place to stay

This was a very comfortable house for our extended family of 3 generations with the youngest members being 4 and 6. There were multiple outdoor seating areas for eating or just hanging out in the sun. This is our second stay here and will certainly return in the future.

Great Property and Hosts

The home is much more spacious than we thought from looking at it online and has a great sitting area and deck off the main bedroom. You can walk to Leadbetter Beach in 10-12 minutes and the downtown State Area and the Funk Zone are only a 5-7 minute drive. We plan to stay again when we are in Santa Barbara!

Thanksgiving Beach Get-Away

Lovely house and yard - perfect for a quiet weekend getaway with husband and dog. Short walk to beach. Fenced in yard was great so dog could sniff around while we sat outside on porch. Fireplace was wonderful for chilly November evenings. Loved all the skylights too.

Enjoyable Stay in Santa Barbara

We very much enjoyed our stay at this property. All is exactly as described in the listing. The house itself is charmingly quirky and well equipped. The location is excellent - walkable to the beach and a quick drive downtown. We especially appreciated the free onsite parking which can be hard to come by in Santa Barbara. The lack of air conditioning was not a problem for us as we found the evenings to be cool and comfortable. The host is very responsive and we would not hesitate to recommend.

Perfect place to stay in Santa Barbara

This cozy cottage was perfect for our family of 6. The house is so unexpectedly adorable with so many picture-perfect details, like all the skylights, french doors, and beautiful patios, & outdoor plants! There was plenty of room, privacy, & everything we needed! We walked down to the beach several times. The location was perfect. We found plenty of quaint coffee shops and restaurants close by with Savoy being our favorite!

Just what we wanted

From the start of booking everything was great. Communication was perfect. The house was exactly what we were looking for. We had 2 families and the way the rooms and bathrooms are spaced was perfect. The house is located in the best location to get to everything. When we visit Santa Barbara again we will be seek out this rental again.

About the host

Hosted by Sunny

Host profile image
The owners are SB locals, 4th generation, that take an active part in the SB lifestyle. We lived at this house for 17 years and have recently moved out of this family friendly neighborhood. Our house is warm and wonderful and we wanted to share it with VRBO guests. 5 - 20 minutes walks will take you to the beach, harbor, pier and State Street! We enjoy hiking, surfing, paddling and bicycling. We love SB and all that it has to offer. Come share in the fun!

Why they chose this property

We are centrally located in SB in an area called the Mesa. The Mesa offers a fun and low key vibe which is quintessential SB. So much fun to be had in a quick walk or a 10 or 15 minute car ride.

What makes this property unique

Almost everyday we take in the beauty of SB beaches. From walking the dog, surfing or stand up paddling we take part in all of it. We live so close to the beaches and parks that being active in the beautiful outdoors is part of our daily habit. Don't want to spend all day at the beach...then stroll down to the Pier to see Ty Warner's Sea Center, go fishing or grab a bite to eat. Take the electric shuttle to the SB Zoo or East beach to play a game of Volley Ball. So many options to choose from!
Stay 3 nights or 3 months!*
